Description

Ready to go back into work, this 6yo gelding by MAKFI is a winner of 3 from 1200m to 1700m. Purchase at 19’ NZ yearling sale for $70,000 - Ellmaknifico is a 1/2 to current NZ 3yo filly Luberon who is stakes placed [G2 Auckland guineas] and winner/placed in 5 of 8 starts.

Many of his current family runners are current black type in Europe including Italian 3yo and black type winner Noble Title - 8 wins from 14, plus French 4yo Asymmetric a G2 winner having won 4 from 14 and UK 3yo Mill Stream a G3 winner that has won 3 from 10.

This is a regretful sale as stable needs physical room to bring through a combination of 6 x 2yo’s and yearlings in coming months.

He has ben a pleasure to train and we wish the new owners success in the near future. He would be suited to softer tracks.
